Honeypaw slowly opened her eyes, moonlight filtering through the leaves of the Apprentice's den. She yawned and looked at the rising and falling flanks of her sleeping denmates, then she decided to check on Mumblewing, which was on guard. Rising to her paws, she padded out into the clearing, making her way to the camp entrance. As Honeypaw checked on her mentor, she saw that she had fallen asleep, and a plan of revenge came to the she-cat's mind. Making sure she didn't wake her sleeping mentor, Honeypaw snuck through the dirtplace tunnel, making it to the small clearing, she tore out a hole in the bramble wall. She was poked by small harmless thorns, but soon made her way out. Raising her head, Honeypaw scented a rabbit, and started stalking it. As the prey noticed her coming, she pounced on it, quickly killing it with a paw to the neck. She took a few bites of it, swallowing the fresh meat, then picked up the remains of the rabbit and padded back to Mumblewing, setting it down in front of the warrior. Quietly, she walked back to the Apprentice's den, and drifted back to sleep.

"Mumblewing, explain why we found a half-eaten rabbit next to you while you were on guard." Honeypaw woke to Scorcheye confronting her mentor about the rabbit from last night, and padded out of the den to watch. "Scorcheye, I didn't catch anything. I haven't eaten since dusk yesterday." Mubmewling  tried to explain, but telling from Scorcheye's expression, he didn't believe her. "Meet me at Duskstar's den by sunhigh for a talk, see you then." Scorcheye growled, making his way toward the leader's den to tell Duskstar what happened. Honeypaw's plan had worked.
